ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for measuring the content of hydrogen dissolved in a molten metal, comprising an immersion head immersed within a batch of the molten metal to bring an inert gas into contact with the molten metal, an inert gas circulating device connected to the immersion head and having gas passages cooperating with the immersion head to form a closed circulatory path for circulating the inert gas a plurality of times through the path to and from the immersion head. The apparatus further comprises a hydrogen gas content measuring device connected to the gas passage for measuring the hydrogen-content of the inert gas flowing through the gas passage, the measuring device comprising a first measuring cell connected to the gas passage and having therein an electric resistance wire exposed to the circulated inert gas containing the hydrogen picked up from the molten metal, and further comprising a second measuring cell filled with atmosphere whose thermal conductivity is substantially equal to that of the inert gas. The measuring device includes a housing block which has portions to define a vacuum chamber surrounding each of the measuring cells in order to thermally separate the cell from the atmosphere surrounding the measuring device. The vacuum chambers for both cells are connected to each other and to a vacuum source. The housing block may be a cylindrical member of metal connected to an evacuation pipe.
